Better hope our top 2 lines can score again, because I don't think our bottom 6 of slow grinders will be doing much scoring - especially as long as Boll somehow is playing.

zero reason for Fiore to be here if they aren't going to play him, and we are wasting skilled players in our bottom 6 having Boll on the ice
I was shaking my head watching the Arizona game when they had Kase with Boll....like what is the point? As you said it's wasting skilled players putting Boll with them. Hell it's wasting the defensive grinders playing them with Boll, who wouldn't make an AHL line up.

Surely playing Fiore is better then giving Boll 5 minutes a night?

I can't believe Gibson is playing tonight. After that one save the other night I was sure he would be out for a couple games. Dude's groin is made of glass and I cringe every time he makes any remotely awkward saves.

A punching bag with skates being thrown onto the ice for 5 minutes would have the same impact as Boll.
That's selling the punching bag a bit short

Am I missing something here? I didn't know Gibson was under any short of injury cloud for this one

He spent all summer working on his lower body. Hopefully it proves worthy and may we hope he stays healthy

Boll better not play.

Expecting a loss in this one, but I feel alright about it.

Nothing was said really in the broadcast but a lot of fans took notice of one save in particular where Gibson did the splits and was pretty slow to get up. Had some of us thinking "groin injury" again.

Flyers are better than Arizona but are still pretty average. Our current healthy roster is about on par with theirs so I feel this could go either way.

Nobody complains about Boll during the games because he is good 4th line enforcer. It's only before or after the games. Like an annoying broken record. And as usual it's the same regardless who the enforcer is. Disney past is still in people's minds.

People don't complain during the games because he's only playing five minutes in them while only touching the puck twice.
